HelloSign at OSCON 2015

Last week, a few members of the HelloSign team packed up and headed to Portland, Oregon for the annual Open Source Conference (OSCON) hosted by O’Reilly Media.

‍

The convention, boasting an impressive lineup of speakers and attendees, was more than just a meetup for developers.

‍

Straight from the OSCON site:

‍

“Once considered a radical upstart, open source has moved from disruption to default. Its methods and culture commoditized the technologies that drove the Internet revolution and transformed the practice of software development.

‍

Collaborative and transparent, open source has become modus operandi, powering the next wave of innovation in cloud, data, and mobile technologies. OSCON is where all of the pieces come together: developers, innovators, businesspeople, and investors.”

‍

OSCON 2015 was attended by over 4,000 professionals. Representatives from Twilio, New Relic, and GitHub (plus more) took to the floor to share innovations in open source and connect with developers, investors, and business people.
Keynote speakers included 13-year old coder Keila Banks, James Pearce of Facebook, and Allison Randal of HP.

Our attending team members manned booth #427 to spread the word about eSignatures and our eSignature API.

‍

Highlights of the conference for the HelloSign team included:

‍

Meeting engineers passionate about open source

Seeing the trends in open source (in particular, how companies are embracing open source as part of their business strategy)

Talking to developers about interesting projects where eSignatures would be a great fit. That’s our favorite!
